Phrase Drill
Special Form Drill
For twenty-five years a daily article by Callisthenes has appeared in one or another of the London newspapers, as part of the advertising of the great department store Selfridge and Company. Callisthenes was kind enough to give us permission to reprint two of the articles--the one in this assingment and the one in assignment 80. The content of the article in this assignment, "The practice that makes perfect," is especially helpful to the commercial studnet. The writer has been told that Callisthenes is a woman, but he or she even signs his or her letters "Callisthenes," affording to no clue to the real identify of the gifted person who has produced these fine articles daily over so long a period of time. A book entitled "Callisthenes" has been published, containing about 200 of the best of these essays. The content value of these articles is so high and the style of English so fluent that we heartily recommend the matter for dictation. [note the teachers manual said: Any teacher who wishes to procure one may do so by sending an international money order for three shillings to Selfridge and Company and asking for a copy of "Callisthenes." The book is a substantial volume of 340 pages.]
